This study aim to evaluate dietary quality and nutritional status according to the consumption of health functional food using Nutrition Quotient for Korean elderly (NQ-E) for 288 elderly people attending senior welfare centers in Gyeonggi-do. The questionnaire consisted of items about general information, health functional food, and Nutrition Quotient for Korean elderly (NQ-E). Chi-squared test, Fisher's exact tests, and Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) were performed using the SAS program ver. 9.4. Among the male and female subjects, the female subjects consumed more health functional food. The results of the dietary quality and nutritional status difference according to the intake of health functional food showed significant differences only in the areas of variety and abstinence among nutrition quotient factors for men, while no significant differences were observed in any of the nutrition quotient factors for women. In conclusion, focused-nutrition education program and useful guideline is needed for promoting adequate consumption of health functional foods in elderly.

목적 : 뇌졸중 환자의 일반적 및 기능적 특성과 참여 수준에 따른 작업적 목표활동을 조사하고 분석하는 것 이다. 연구방법 : 본 연구는 입원치료를 받고 있는 뇌졸중 환자 75명을 대상으로 일반적인 특성, 기능 및 참여 수준에 대해 평가하고 자신의 원하는 목표활동을 인터뷰를 통해 조사하였다. 얻어진 자료로 일반적인 특성, 기능 및 참여 수준에 따라 목표활동의 빈도를 분석하고 작업의 하위 개념에 따라 분류하였다. 통계분석은 SPSS Window Version. 18.0으로 기술통계 및 빈도분석을 실시하였다. 결과 : 일반적 특성 중 성별에 따라서 남자 뇌졸중 환자는 운전하기, 여자 뇌졸중 환자는 식사준비하기가 가장 원하는 목표활동이었다. 손상측에 따라서는 우세측 마비 환자는 젓가락질하기, 비우세측 마비 환자는 식사준비 하기가 가장 원하는 목표활동이었다. 기능적 특성 중 독립성의 수준으로 분류하였을 때 의존도가 낮은 집단에서는 운전하기, 의존도가 높은 집단에서는 화장실가기, 실내 이동하기가 가장 원하는 목표활동이었다. 참여수준에 따른 목표활동은 일상생활활동의 참여가 높은 집단에서는 대중교통이용하기, 사회활동의 참여가 높은 집단에 서는 텃밭 가꾸기, 여가활동의 참여가 높은 집단에서는 운전하기로 나타났다. 결론 : 뇌졸중 환자의 일반적 및 기능적 특성과 참여 수준에 따라 자신이 선택한 작업적 목표를 분석해보아 작업치료사들에게 목표설정 시 이용할 수 있는 기초자료를 제공하는 데에 의미가 있다.

Proper skin care promotes good metabolism and the biological activity of skin, helps maintain the skin in a healthy and beautiful state when combined with nutritional nourishment. Health functional foods are being used for the purpose of enhancing efficient skin care. Health functional foods related to skin care maintain the epidermis, dermal fibroblast layer and subcutaneous tissue that form the skin. Efficient functional foods alleviate the signs of endogenous aging that come with getting older and exogenous aging caused by sunlight. Even though the field of skin care related to health functional foods has received less attention and been the subject of less research compared to functional cosmetics which are developing widely, this area of skin care that maintains and improves the layer of dermal fibroblast through the intake of food, is expected to progress with the commercialization of products in many fields when the related technical research development is galvanized and the related patents are applied for. Research into health functional foods related to skin care in Korea started rather late in comparison to other advanced countries where patents for relevant techniques have been applied for since 1990's together with research conducted on how they might be used for practical purposes. This study used the key words ‘skin care, health functional food’ to search for Korean patents that have been applied for at the Korean Intellectual Property Office from 1983 to 2011 using the KIPRIS database, in order to help researchers in the related fields by organizing the patented formulas for health functional foods for skin care which have gained attention recently. According to the number of registrations in each industry field, the total number of patents was 1, 120 we screened the major patents among them, the field with the largest number was food foodstuff non-alcoholic beverage and preparation or treatment(A23L) with 135, then natural plant medicine & medical supplies and cosmetics(A61K) with 112, microorganisms or enzymes(C12N) with 63, heterocyclic compounds(C07D) with 44, horticulture or cultivation of sea weeds, forestry(A01G) 16 times, listed from the highest to the lowest number of applications. It has been revealed that food, foodstuff, non-alcoholic beverage and preparation or treatment(A23L) was the industry field where the most patents for health functional foods related to skin care were registered.

The purpose of this study was to determine the basic materials needed for nutrition and health programs for aged people. In order to set up these programs, the nutritional habit, nutritional knowledge and functional health status (mobility, functional assessment, and falls efficacy) of the aged were measured, and their relationships were determined. Data was collected on 57 aged individuals that participated in the 'Exercise Program for the Aged' conducted by the National Health Insurance Corporation. These 57 subjects were interviewed and tested by direct measurement prior to conducting the program. The data was analyzed using the SPSS 13.0 Package. According to the results, the nutritional habit ranged from 24-50 out of 50, and the average was 37.2, which was above the middle level. The average nutritional knowledge was of 4.02 out of 5, which was considered reasonably high. Especially, more than half of these subjects were uneducated, but they had a high interest in nutrition. The average mobility was determined to be 9.2 seconds and the falls efficacy was 64.2 out of 100. In addition, subjects answered that they had a fear of falling due to low confidence, which indicates that safety education for the prevention of falls should be provided to aged individuals in the future. The results showed that notable counter-relations between nutritional habit and functional health status existed.

The objectives of this study were to investigate the relationship between fear-avoidance beliefs and functional status in individuals suffering from low back pain, and to identify factors that influence on fear-avoidance beliefs, functional status and pain. A cross-sectional study included 214 individuals with low back pain. Each of subjects completed a fear-avoidance beliefs questionnaire (FABQ) which divided into two subscales, FABQ for physical activity (FABQ-PA) and FABQ for work(FABQ-W), Oswestry disability index (ODI) and numeric pain rating scale (NPRS). Individuals with radiating pain were significantly higher in FABQ-PA, FABQ-total, and ODI scores than with no radiation pain (p<.05). Individuals who had received surgery were significantly higher in FABQ-PA, FABQ-total, ODI and NPRS scores when compared with individuals who had not received it (p<.05). And individuals with taking medication were significantly higher in all variables (FABQ-PA, FABQ-W, FABQ-total ODI and NPRS) than individuals not taking medication (p<.05). In correlation analysis. age appeared to be significantly correlated with FABQ-PA, FABQ-total and ODI scores (p<.05), and all variables was significantly correlated with each other (p<.01). These findings indicate that individuals suffering from low back pain have psychosocial problems such as fear-avoidance beliefs as well as functional status and pain. Fear-avoidance beliefs may contribute to aggravate physical symptoms, and therefore it should be carefully considered for the management of individuals with low back pain.

The purpose of this study was to identify the relationship between motor and mental status and functional status, and to determine appropriate test times. Using the Modified Motor Assessment Scale(motor status) and the Modified Barthel Index(functiona1 status), the Glasgow Coma Scale(menta1 status), we tested 9 stroke patients. 1 week. 1 month after their stroke. Three measures are reliable and valid. We used the Sperman correlation coefficient(r) and Wilcoxon signed rank test to analyze the data. MMAS scores at 1 month correlated significantly with MBI scores at 1 month(r=0.89). But GCS scores at 1 month did not correlate significantly with MBI scores at 1 month. All data of MMAS at 1 month correlated significantly with MBI scores at 1 month. But only verbal response score among GCS scores at 1 month correlated significantly with MBI scores at 1 month(r=0.86). The difference of MMAS, GCS. MBI scores between 1 week and 1 month after stroke onset were statistically significant(p(0.05). This study suggested that the mental status had more impact on functional recovery than motor status at 1 week after their stroke. Also, the motor status had more impact on functional recovery than mental status at 1 month after their stroke. But the mental and motor status should be considered together in predicting the functional recovery status of stroke patients.
